Netmagic, Nuage Networks partner to offer managed SD-WAN service

New Delhi [India], Feb 22 : NTT Com India-Netmagic has announced its partnership with Nuage Networks, the Nokia venture focused on Software Defined Networks (SDN) to enhance its Network as a Service (NaaS) portfolio based on its innovative Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) solution.
This enables enterprises to automatically route and optimise network traffic and gain visibility of applications performance without spending more on bandwidth.
NTT Com India-Netmagic will deploy Nuage's Virtualized Network Services (VNS) solution at their data centers across the country. Once deployed, NTT Com India-Netmagic's enterprise customers will experience increased agility and flexibility through automation and will be able to maximize the advantages of cloud.

SD-WAN enables the broader goal of enterprises connecting users to applications in a cost-efficient WAN topology. It is independent of the type of network - wireless, wireline networks or the public internet - or, whether the applications are hosted in data centers or on public clouds. This will also help enterprises' branch offices to route traffic to the internet where a more expensive MPLS line is not necessary.
